Prep time: 15 min
Cook time: 210 min
Total time: 225 min
Yield: 6
Ingredients: 3 tbsp olive oil , separated; 1.5 kg/3lb beef cheeks , (4 large or 6 small beef cheeks); 1 onion (white, brown or yellow), roughly diced (about 1 cup); 1 celery stalk , roughly diced (about 1 cup); 1 carrot , roughly diced (about 3/4 cup); 4 garlic cloves , minced; 6 stems of fresh thyme or 1 1/2 tsp dried thyme leaves; 4 dried bay leaves (or 3 fresh bay leaves); 1 cup (250 ml) beef stock (broth); 2 cups (500 ml) red wine (full bodied eg. cabernet sauvignon or merlot); 2 - 3 tsp salt , separated; Black pepper

1. Size - The beef cheeks I got were unusually large, around 350g/12oz each. Great man size portions. Usually beef cheeks are around 250g/8oz each and I get 6.

2. Beef Cheeks - If you can't find beef cheeks, substitute with any other cut of beef suitable for slow cooking. Boneless beef short ribs is ideal! Cut them into 250g/8oz pieces.

3. Leftover beef cheeks and sauce can be kept in the freezer for 3 months.

4.Nutrition per serving, excluding mashed potato.
